Another award show nominations are out, and another series of disappointment for us. There’s nothing for Leary and his team from Rescue Me, there’s too little for Scrubs/Office/30 Rock/Earl, and there are way too many noms for HBO shows. Obviously, the last episode of Sopranos was nominated. I could have told you that back in [...]
NBC, being the last network in ratings for two seasons straight, is beginning to catch on. No, they’re not necessarily putting on better shows (only time will show that, as we found out with demise of Studio 60), they’re simply announcing their sked sooner, in order to create some buzz. At this point, positive or [...]
Hey everyone. Still recovering from that shocking ending of episode 3 of Rescue Me? So are we. Wandering why the 4400 seems to be re-starting the series, and bringing old twists and subplots into the latest season? Maybe it’s the popularity of superheroes (that new NBC’s show, remember?) that guides their writing. Ready for some [...]
Hey, you. Think that just because you TIVOed all season finales you got everything covered? Think you can spend the next three months catching up on soaps, b-list throwaway shows and reruns? You’re wrong, buddy. FX, Bravo, Showtime, and many other TV channels have discovered the joy of sex, ahem, the joy of launching (premiering) [...]
Wow, did NBC take a dive with overhauled “Raines” hourlong. When I saw the early pilot of the show, it looked quirky, even too smart for television. What you could easily confuse with a Medium rip-off, turned out to be more tongue-in-cheek, more realistic, and yet, had more humour and life. Well, that was the [...]
The people have spoken. The People’s Choice awards aired yesterday. I do not agree with all the choices made, but it was entertaining and, after all, I got nothing to complain about as I am not the show’s target demographic. See for yourself if these are your favorites:
2007 is here, time to detox from the holidays, stop all the book reading, and get back to TV watching. Here’s the list of premiere dates for new (and returning) TV shows. Get your TIVOs going.
If you didn’t see this coming, why do you even bother turning on the television. Most of these are obvious, but it’s always a good thing to make cancellations official. No need to keep the fans (heh) in the dark. I can’t agree on the full season orders (except for Studio 60 yay, team), but [...]
Well the award shows are beginning to steam-clean that oh-so-popular red carpet. People’s Choice Awards have released their list of nominees (see below). It’s cheesy, and it doesn’t really reflect what I would pick. But, hey, that’s what the people want! I can just hear the speeches now: “first of all, I’d like to thank [...]
It’s just too bad about Smith, although I couldn’t care less about Kidnapped. When NBC resorts to ripping off a FOX show, that’s a bad sign. Not that there’s anything wrong with FOX in particular – 24 and House are amazing entertainment, consistently from episode one. But, pardon the unpopular opinion, Prison Break and Vanished [...]
